Something is not right there, the increase of £16.84 does not equate to 3 (post 2016) years at £5.82. It is more like 2 post 2016 years and 1 pre. Have you checked which years have actually been added ? Do you have a printout of the situation before you paid and now ?DDhh said:I currently received £162.45/wk. forcast for paying extra 6 yrs is £197.40/wk.

Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

Do you not have on line access to your tax account / NI record - the easiest way to check anything ?

The NI record will show the years that are full. Does it show the correct years as being topped up ?
